It was mentioned on the Kill James Bond podcast; The James Bond character continuum.
The reason why James Bond looks different over the years is because James Bond is a position and not a person. Multiple agents have held this position. When one is killed or captured, another agent takes over.
So, where did the different agents end up?
Well, JB by Sean Connery was imprisoned in the US for his many crimes, rape included.
Lazenby quit after his wife was murdered.
Roger Moore, I don't remember. Killed by Dolph Lundgren, probably.
Timothy Dalton, don't remember.
Pierce Brosnan was captured by North Korea.
And here are the implications: Sean Connerys James Bond was imprisoned on Alcatraz, and his later life is depicted in the movie The Rock.
Pierce Brosnan is still in an NK cell, deprived of any social contact, tortured, 99% PTSD by what little remains of his body weight. As a coping strategy he has escaped into a fantasy world of his own making. And from this we get the movie Mamma Mia.
Timothy Dalton's James Bond died deep under double cover in Hollywood in a tragic airship related rocket pack accident.
A risk we all take when going undercover as a nazi…
This is also true about Carmen Sandiego, which is why no one can find "her"
Carmen Sandiego is a metaphor for all that you don’t know, which is why you’re always chasing “her“.
I heard this theory in the 80s, and I believe there have been in-jokes about it in the last 2 or 3 Daniel Craig Bond films. It’s likely head-canon for most Bond fans.
That’s why I think this I one of the best comments here.
